My professional journey has taken me from studying and working in child welfare, to serving as an administrator of residential treatment centers for adolescents, to providing individual and group therapy, and ultimately to becoming a certified Family Reunification Therapist and EMDR-trained clinician. These experiences have given me a deep understanding of how relationships, attachment, trauma, and life experiences shape the way we see ourselves and connect with others.

My work is grounded in a trauma-informed, attachment-focused, and holistic approach. I have extensive experience supporting individuals and families who have experienced trauma, disrupted relationships, difficult family dynamics, and significant life transitions. I have also spent years studying attachment and the profound ways early relationships can influence our emotional well-being, relationships, and patterns throughout life.

As an EMDR-trained therapist, I integrate evidence-based, trauma-informed approaches into my work while recognizing that no two people and no two healing journeys are exactly alike. My role is not to tell you who you should be or how you should live your life. Rather, it is to help you better understand yourself, identify patterns that may be keeping you stuck, develop healthier ways of coping and connecting, and create meaningful change at a pace that feels right for you.

Whether you are a teenager trying to understand yourself and your relationships, a young adult navigating a new chapter, a parent feeling overwhelmed, or an adult who has spent years putting everyone else's needs before your own, I want therapy to feel like a space where you can finally exhale.

I bring warmth, curiosity, honesty, and compassion to every session. I believe that healing happens through connection, and that sometimes the most important part of therapy is simply having someone sit beside you and say, "Let's figure this out together."
